i am building a 3d printed Stargate with lights and sounds using a D1 mini and a DFPlayer mini. The code is from this github repo: (github.com/spradlinb/Stargate_3D). when i compile the code in the Arduino IDE i get a SPI error as depicted in the image. I’ve tried remapping the gpio pins with no success. what am i doing wrong? BTW here is a video of what i’m trying to build: youtu.be/y01J-hymaDs

Undo any code changes and try setting your board version and the libraries to the latest version they had when the code was uploaded (jan 28 2024). Usually this does the trick when trying to build older code for Arduino.

The first warning you can probably ignore. The second might cause an issue. Neither of these look fatal though, what’s the actual end result you’re not getting?

I wish the gate would spin while dialing.

  It has to spin. It’s round. Spinning is so much cooler than not spinning.

  The code looks like it uploads and fails to make noise or light up the led strip. and the serial output is a garbled mess (I tried different baud rates with no success). I have also check my wiring with a multi meter and scoured any wiring schematics.

    Double check you have the right board type defined in the Arduino ide
